________________________________
This is the kind of delusion that makes me *smh* at this stupid owner and these fans. Welcome to free agency and the general sports world-you did NOT own Lebron, he is a free man. Slavery is dead and it’s gone.
You people are victims of NOTHING, and Im not even a fan of Lebron or the Heat.
You had arguably the game’s greatest player for SEVEN Years in a little podunk town (as far as the sports map is concerned). Why must you people persist in being such bitter, angry people, instead of just thanking him for what he’s done and moving on? I’m a Knick fan who naively thought we had a shot with him, but at some point you have to wake up and smell the coffee dude.
Oh and by the way, if I was a free agent I would neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevveeeeeeeeeeeeeeer come to Cleveland. The way you people handled this seemed churlish and offputting, not to mention who displays zero professionalism?

He put you on the map, at least pretend to be grateful. Without Lebron, the rest of the world barely acknowledged the existence of the city of Cleveland.

Tue, 03 Aug 2010 01:33:57 +0000http://localhost/wp/nbcpbt/?p=3442#comment-21563It’s interesting how so many of you bash on Cleveland. You sound like those kids in school who pick on other kids cuz that’s what makes you feel better about yourselves. Whatever helps you sleep at night. Lebron looks like a sidekick because he was the big man on campus and couldn’t pull it off. If he hated the city so much, like everyone is saying, why didn’t he leave after 4 years. I think he’s just a little punk b*Tch who can’t get it done. He is and always will be a follower…check out his movie and see who the real leader was of him and his pals back in the day…it’s not LBJ.

She was the center of your universe one day, but after she breaks up with you she defines evil in your eyes. Get over it Cleveland..Lebron is way too good for us to watch his career rot away in your tearfully sad, suicide inducing, excuse for a geographical location. LEBRON DID NOT BELONG TO CLEVELAND…Cleveland belonged to Lebron. (Perhaps you all should have removed your lips from his genitals a long time ago). How’s it taste now?

They will have the worse record in the NBA. The NEts and Twolves made good moves and all the Cavs did was lose people. Dan Gilbert u are now the worse owner in sports!! hahaha

Mon, 02 Aug 2010 15:58:39 +0000http://localhost/wp/nbcpbt/?p=3442#comment-21557again he had the right to do what he did,but to do it in the way he did was wrong.then to try and blame the cavs. for not being able to win a title is even more pathetic.if he was so concerned about winning over money then why did he sign a max deal with cleveland with his last contract?why not sacrifice a little then to add a superstar sidekick to help win a title with the cavs?as it was the team that everybody wants to bash as being no good now got to the finals 1 year and had the best record the last 2.not shabby for a lousy team.he wants the credit for all the success they had but none of the blame when he could not put them over the top. in miami he will not have to take the blame if they fail to win it all.

Mon, 02 Aug 2010 15:41:01 +0000http://localhost/wp/nbcpbt/?p=3442#comment-21556Three months ago those fans were fighting tooth and nail, arguing that LeBron is the best player in the world.
Now he’s a sidekick?
lmao

Mon, 02 Aug 2010 15:31:26 +0000http://localhost/wp/nbcpbt/?p=3442#comment-21555I love this sign. People always have something to say about what the fans are doing and Dan Gilbert. But, everyone one forgot Cleveland fans are the victims and Dan Gilbert is. To get on national tv and ditch your team is not right so, people can say what they want. He is not only going to see signs like this but all over the United State he will see signs dissing him. Because he is hated not only in Cleveland but in other states as well. If he would have been more respectful about his decision the Clevelanders would be more respectful. If you can take it do ditch it out. Furthermore, I live in Cleveland and I am so sick and tired of people saying we are broke. Maybe the corporate workers are but honestly in this city people make much money because they are self employed. I make
$60k a year and know 100 more people that own their own businesses in Cleveland that makes much more. So, the stats is not right!!! We are straight.

But besides that, how long is Cleveland going to cry like a 12 year old?

Mon, 02 Aug 2010 13:24:10 +0000http://localhost/wp/nbcpbt/?p=3442#comment-21549What an incredible waste of money. LeBron James is not a threat to the well being of life in Cleveland, which is why this “grassroots campaign dream” is completely irrational. If we are lucky, this will be the last type of worthless demonstration from a certain section of people in the Cleveland/Akron area. He’s gone, get over it.

What happens when owners trade their players? Does anybody have a problem with that? Why is James made to feel like he owes Cleveland something? He fulfilled his contract by devoting seven years of life and has no ring to show for it. It is time for him to move on. Deal with it and stop wineing. One man does not make a team.
